Chiropractic isn’t just for your back! As experts in the musculoskeletal system, our offices specialize in treating extremity conditions to relieve pain and discomfort by improving joint motion, optimizing muscle function, and restoring proper flexibility and strength.
30 Million doctor visits a year are due to knee and shoulder injuries alone.
Common Extremity Issues

While chiropractors are commonly known to treat spinal issues, we can also help with extremity conditions by using muscle therapy, exercise, and joint adjustments.
Extremity Adjustments
Can restore joint motion to a restricted joint and reduce pain, allowing for proper joint function.
Muscle Therapy
And rehab exercises help to strengthen the muscles around the joint, which can help decrease inflammation and swelling.
Know someone suffering from extremity pain – we’d love to help.
When you refer someone to MyoCore, they’ll receive a $20 Chiropractic Package including a musculoskeletal evaluation, 30-minute myofascial release therapy, and chiropractic adjustment. And as a bonus, you will receive a FREE gift too!
Tips For Joint Health
Stay In Motion – The more you move, the less stiff you’ll be. Change positions and take a 10-minute movement break every hour.
Treat Joint Injuries – Injuries can add to the breakdown of cartilage in your joints. If you get hurt, see your doctor right away for an evaluation.
Strengthen Your Muscles – With proper strength training, you will increase your joints’ stability while decreasing pain.
Drink More Water – Proper hydration can improve the production of synovial fluid, reduce inflammation and maintain the shock-absorbing properties of cartilage.
Omega-3, Vitamin D, & Calcium – Ensure your diet is rich in these crucial nutrients. Omega-3 lowers inflammation and keeps joints healthy. Vitamin D and Calcium are required for healthy bones.
